Eclipse Vert.x

Reactive applications on the JVM

Visit Eclipse Vert.x

Eclipse Vert.x is an open-source toolkit for building reactive applications on the JVM. It is designed to be composable and embeddable rather than a prescriptive framework, letting users pick the modules and clients they need. It supports multiple asynchronous programming models (callbacks, promises, futures, reactive extensions, Kotlin coroutines) and targets resource-efficient execution in environments such as virtual machines and containers.
